Hotel Bala Ji International

Hotel Bala Ji International Overview

First Impressions

Walking into Hotel Bala Ji International in Paharganj, I honestly wasn’t expecting much from the narrow street entrance — but you know what, this three-star place completely surprised me. The lobby is clean and welcoming, with that efficient Indian hospitality that makes you feel sorted right away. The staff actually remembers your name after the first day, which is something you don’t always get even at pricier hotels. The attention to detail in common areas sets a welcoming tone for your entire stay.

Location & Getting Around

Here’s the thing about staying in New Delhi — location is everything, and this hotel nails it. Paharganj might seem chaotic at first (well, it is chaotic), but you’re literally walking distance from New Delhi Railway Station, which means easy airport connections and train travel across India. The Main Bazaar is right there when you step out, so you’ve got everything from street food to travel agencies within a five-minute walk. I mean, couples seem to really get this — they’re rating the location 8.8, and I can see why. The neighborhood pulses with energy and authentic local culture.

The Room Experience

The room I stayed in was compact but thoughtfully designed — no wasted space, everything you need without feeling cramped. Air conditioning works well (crucial in Delhi summers), and the bed was actually comfortable, not just hotel-functional. What impressed me was how quiet it stays despite being in the heart of Paharganj’s madness. The bathroom is modern enough, with hot water that doesn’t take forever to arrive. Natural light filters through well-positioned windows, creating a pleasant atmosphere.

Breakfast & Dining

The breakfast spread here is honestly better than some four-star places I’ve tried in Delhi. They do this buffet setup with continental options alongside proper Indian dishes — you can get your toast and eggs, or go for parathas and sabzi. The vegetarian selection is extensive (this is India, after all), and they actually accommodate gluten-free requests without making a big fuss about it. The Asian options add some variety too, though I stuck mostly to the Indian dishes because, well, when in Delhi. Fresh juices and quality coffee round out the morning offerings nicely.

Why Guests Love It

Look, this isn’t a fancy heritage hotel or a business district tower — it’s a solid, reliable place that gets the basics right while keeping you connected to real Delhi. The 9.2 rating makes sense when you consider what you’re getting for the price point. You’re paying for a clean, comfortable base in one of the city’s most connected neighborhoods, with staff who actually care about making your stay work. For travelers who want to experience Delhi rather than hide from it, but still need a proper place to rest and recharge, this hotel hits that sweet spot perfectly. It’s the kind of place you’d recommend to friends without hesitation.

Delhi’s hotels wrap travelers in yoga sunrise decks, Ayurvedic retreats, and concierge-led heritage walks.

• José from Denmark – 5 April 2025 (10/10)

  The staff welcomed me after having some struggles with a previous booking, where the hotel was actually in construction and I had an alternative solution. They saved me for the night.
  Kumar has been very kind and messaged me to make sure that all was ok.
  The room is big and the bed is confortable. The bathroom is spacious and has hot water. Plus there's AC and a fan for the warmth.
  The hotel is fairly close to the metro station and the chauk.
  Thank you for hosting me for the night ♡
